Photographer's Note

House front doors in Chora, Patmos are a very interesting theme. Each has its individual design and colour that sets it apart from every other door in the neighbourhood. Many doors have elaborate door knockers in a great variety of forms: goddesses, wreaths, horses, lions, hands...
A lot of the antique houses of Chora have been bought by people of non_greek nationality. Every owner must obey strict rules concerning the preservation of the town's architectural style. This explains the homogenous white colour of the houses. Doors and door knockers, in a great diversity of designs, forms and colours speak of the owner's style and individuality in a very pleasant, interesting and effective way.

Hi Ourania
Wow, this one really knocks you in, I dont think I'd spend much time looking at a door handle but this one makes you think. Love the old rustic apperance so sharp, clean and so full of detail and great contrasting colors. This looks like the hand of fatima I have seen in Tunisia and this must belongs to a French owner surely. Great find and so well taken. Excellent infor notes, Well done.
Best regards
